This week has been busy with
assessments! I'm so exciting share with you all your child has learned! If you haven't yet, please call the office at 465-7801 to
schedule your conference time with me. If for some reason there isn't a
day or time that works for you, please email me. Conferences are one of my favorite times of the
year, because we have uninterrupted time to discuss your child and
how we can both help them be as successful as possible in school.
Kindergarten students do not attend these conferences.
DURING CONFERENCE WEEK (NOVEMBER 19-25), GRADES 1-6 HAVE HALF DAYS; HOWEVER, THE KINDERGARTEN SCHEDULE DOES NOT CHANGE. AM KINDERS GO FROM 9:10-11:45am AND PM KINDERS GO FROM 12:45-3:20pm.

1. Take Home Books are due Monday!
Options for the Take Home Book Exchange:
Options for the Take Home Book Exchange:
- If your child needs more practice with this book, return the book in
the envelope so I can check off that you have that book.
- If the book was at an appropriate level of difficulty, but you are done with this book write on a sticky note: New Book
- If your child could read this book in the first sitting without any
errors (they knew every single word) write on a sticky note: New Level.
**If a book doesn't have a sticky note, it doesn't get exchanged, just checked off.
2. Homework folders are coming home on Monday. Please note that our building policy is to only give between 5-8 minutes of homework per day in kindergarten (that includes writing their sentence, three math problems, and reading their take home book). If you would like to give your child extra work, that's up to you. If you have questions regarding your child's homework and/or our homework policy, please email me.
3. Please practice the flash cards you were given at Open House with your kiddo (sight words and numbers). Daily practice for just a few minutes is better than one big chunk at once.
4. We will have a Veteran's Day Assembly. The kinders will be singing two songs at the assembly. The assembly is on Tuesday, November 10th, at either 10 a.m. with our primary students (AM-K, 1, 2, and 3) or at 2:00 p.m. with our intermediate students (PM-K, 4, 5, and 6). Kindergarten does not do a Thanksgiving or Christmas program. The only big production we do is in the spring.

6. Start thinking about whether or not you can join us for our all-day field trip on Dec. 10th. We must have one adult for every two kinders or we cannot do the trip. For safety reasons, we cannot take siblings on the trip. Please find childcare for younger kiddos, if you plan on attending.
